“In terms of what’s next, I know what’s on my mind is the same as what’s on everybody else’s mind. And hopefully, there’s an Avengers in the future, somewhere,” Liu, who makes his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut in Shang-Chi, previously told THR about a future Avengers 5. “Obviously, I don’t know anything about that, but being such a big fan of the whole franchise, I know that that’s the gold star. All of the media frenzy that surrounds one of those properties is going to be a whole beast unto itself, so it’s certainly what I hope for. “

In response to the positive reception of Shang-Chi, Marvel head Kevin Feige told ComicBook.com: “The early reactions to the characters and to [Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings] itself gives me great hope that people will want to see more of these characters. We certainly have many ideas of where to take them and where to put them … We know the movie’s working when it’s not just the title character that people ask about, but it is the co-stars or the supporting players that people ask about. “

Feige added: “And in this movie in particular, that’s heartening because we think they’re spectacular. And we think they have great potential in the future.”
